Do you have any buds or blooms yet.

I have some buds but for an encore how about what bloomed last year!!

Just saw your pictures, sorry. They are all beautiful. I'm crazy about mine even though bloom time is rather short.
DH bought me a deep red one, but somehow I managed to kill it.

Thank you Pandora, this forum is a little slow.

They seem to like to be a bit dry at certain times and moist at others. I think I finally got a handle on that they like dry after blooming for couple of months then start to water. They seemed to rot if I watered after they bloomed. I give them just a sip of water all winter.

Yep, most of the forums are slow this time of year. That is a great tip about the watering.
I think I do so well with them because I forget about them often and they get to dry out a bit.
But when they bloom they get my attention and I probably tend to water them more. I'll be
more careful now.
I hope I find a red star shaped one again and try this new approach.

Thanks,
